Jalan Tuanku Abdul Halim also known as Jalan Duta is a major highway in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It connects Segambut until Parliament interchange on the Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 1. It was named after the fifth and current Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Tuanku Abdul Halim Muadzam Shah of Kedah (1970 - 1975 and 2011 - present).
It used to be known as Guilemard Road. The road was constructed in the early 1960s.
On 26 November 2014, the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) changed the name of Jalan Duta to Jalan Tuanku Abdul Halim.
The Segambut roundabout has been upgraded into four-level interchange. It was constructed between 2004 and 2006. The project was led by Malaysian Public Works Department (JKR), Kuala Lumpur City Hall and the main contractor Ahmad Zaki Resources Berhad (AZRB). This four-level interchange was opened to traffic on 26 February 2007.
Meanwhile, the interchange to the new Istana Negara was constructed in 2007 and was completed in 2011.
